Excellent support when walking in my sneakers. I used to wear doctor prescribed orthotics, but these have been my choice of arch support for the last few years!

I was surprised to find these, I haven't been shoe shopping in years! I mostly wear Birkenstocks and this Footbed arch support is great. I have very high arches and very few shoes. I've been able to pull our a few pair that have been sitting in the back of my closet and wear them.

I usually wear an 8 or 8 1/2 size shoe. However, with these arch supports I wear a 40 regular width after having been fitted at a shop. I've worn these for years due to plantar fasciitis. I have several pairs so I don't have to keep switching in and out of shoes. They've kept me walking and hiking for a long time. When the fit is possible, I like to place a thin insole on top to soften just a bit.

I have used these arch supports for about one year. They are sturdy and keep their shape. They provide good arch support. I can wear my sneakers and walk around for several hours without experiencing arch or ankle pain. They fit in many different types of shoes. The only downside is that they feel a bit narrow when you first get them and they take a few weeks to break in, just like regular Birks. I recommend them.

The best arch support! I’ve been having so much trouble with my sneakers and pain that wouldn’t quit on my right big toe joint. I’ve used so many different inserts so decided to go back to these which I’ve used in the past. Come to find out, I had one of these on the left shoe but not the right! Pain subsiding and I believe it will be going away again. Probably will never stop using these now. I have a wide foot and used the “regular” width, the widest, in my usual size, and it was perfect.

I LOVE Birkenstock sandals, but I have a heel spur, so I need an elevated heel. This Orthotic has the amazing support of a Birkenstock footbed, but you can put it into any shoe. LOVE that! The only reason I didn't give 5-stars across the board is my left insert slid forward, just a bit, and felt awkward. I adjusted it, but it wants to slide forward. The perfect solution would be a full-length style; the front doesn't need much substance, but would work to fill space, so it couldn't slide at all.

I normally wear a 37 in Birkenstock’s, but had to size down to a 36 for the shoe insert for comfort, and so that it would fit in my shoes. This is a rigid arch support that does not bend. I’ve used this arch support for over 10 years.

This is the second pair I've ordered. The first pair is still good but I got tired of switching the supports between shoes.

I have flat feet and have recently struggled with a partial posterior tendon tear. I have worn orthotics or arch supports my whole life but struggled with them not fitting into my shoes or making my shoes feel too small. I am blown away by the comfort and fit of these arch supports.I can put them in any shoe, even hurache sandals or ballet slipper. My search is over!!

This is my second pair of these inserts. The first pair has lasted for many years and still are in good shape except for appearance. I find them to be very comfortable. The 3/4 length fits well in all my shoes and prevents the toe box from being too tight, as a full length insert might. They allow me to wear shoes that would otherwise not have enough arch support to be comfortable. I was very happy to find that Zappo's carries them.

My feet started hurting and didn’t hurt when I wore Birkenstock sandals. But I couldn’t where those all the time. Then I got these. Total game-changer. Simply remove the foamy insoles of your Nikes or Allen Edmunds and slip in the guys. Dogs aren’t barkin’ no more!

I was so excited when I found these inserts!! I have had Birkenstocks for a little over 2 years, and love them so much. However, I have been looking for something that I can wear in the winter (besides "Birken-socks") that still offer the arch support that I need. These fit the bill! I can wear them with pretty much anything! I've tried them with my Sperry's, some cheap tennies from Target, and Nike Roshe One's. Basically, they will convert any shoe into a Birkenstock. If you love the feel of Birkenstocks, and want that in any shoe you wear, these are for you!

I have tried all sorts of orthotics, both over the counter and prescription. These work better than any others I have tried and fit all of my shows.

These are the gold standard for arch support in my book. They were suggested to me over twenty years ago when I was suffering from plantar fasciitis. I've had them in all my boots since then and have never had a recurrence.

I ordered the blue casual birkenstock arch support in both narrow and medium width as my foot borders on a narrow fit shoe. Tried one narrow in one boot and medium in the other boot and have worn the boots without a problem with either width. I will trade out the medium width and wear the narrow width as it fits my boot width wise much better. I will keep the medium width for other shoes and will definitely be ordering more birkenstock arch supports. My normal Birkenstocks I wear a 40 and ordered that size arch support and the arch fits as in my birks.

Incredible support! Works great in flasks and even enhances the support in my tennis shoes. I regret not ordering these years ago when I first started dealing with arch related issues (plantar fascitis, cysts, etc).

Absolutely perfect. After months of constant foot pain, a cortisone shot, and a round of meds only to have the pain come back, foot doc recommended custom orthotics. Insurance wouldn’t pay for them. Ordered a few other types of insoles and these are the only ones that give me relief! Pain free as long as I keep using these. Can last on my feet much longer and they were far cheaper than custom!

Well worth the money. I have foot pain because I was pregnant and was wearing shoes with poor support. These inserts are amazing!!!! When I wear them I no longer have pain. I wear them in my loafers and in my running shoes. They’re amazing!!

Excellent for adding much needed support to work flats, feet didn’t hurt at the end of the day. Definitely recommend!
